First, this is a wrong approach. On the first line, put:
Second, I think your script is not complete. You need to put the closing brace } somewhere, either before or after the line starting with QDDTS (depending on whether that is also part of the function).
My UNIX SA requires that we start in CSH. I like to use KSH because most of my experience is in that shell. I added ksh to the end of my .login script which does take me into KSH but I would like to automatically execute my .profile to setup my aliases.

Hey guys,
Hopefully a simple question for you.
In csh I have an alias that looks like:
alias ff 'find . -name \!* -print'
and can therefore perform a search for a file by typing:
ff filename
The same comand does not work in ksh
alias ff="find . -name \!* -print"
I get:

Having been a long-time csh person I now need to convert a lot of stuff to run under ksh. Can anyone tell me how to do a ksh equivalent of the csh history substitution !* that can be used in an alias, ie how would I do:

At first I received the message "ksh: run_dir: not found"

typing echo $SHELL produced /bin/ksh

setusershell
getusershell(3C) Standard C Library Functions getusershell(3C)NAME
getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
char *getusershell(void);
void setusershell(void);
void endusershell(void);
DESCRIPTION
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a legal user shell as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If
/etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place:
/bin/bash /bin/csh
/bin/jsh /bin/ksh
/bin/ksh93 /bin/pfcsh
/bin/pfksh /bin/pfsh
/bin/sh /bin/tcsh
/bin/zsh /sbin/jsh
/sbin/pfsh /sbin/sh
/usr/bin/bash /usr/bin/csh
/usr/bin/jsh /usr/bin/ksh
/usr/bin/ksh93 /usr/bin/pfcsh
/usr/bin/pfksh /usr/bin/pfsh
/usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/tcsh
/usr/bin/zsh /usr/sfw/bin/zsh
/usr/xpg4/bin/sh
The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells.
The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list.
The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells.
RETURN VALUES
The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF.
BUGS
All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved.
NOTES
Restricted shells should not be listed in /etc/shells.
